Question Maisto covers?

Anybody know where I can I buy clear plastic covers for my 1:18 Maistos PT Cruisers? The only ones I have found are either too small or too big. Looking for one that is just right.

I don't know how big is too big, but I got some of these Auto Art boxes at the link below. The hardest part with these boxes is to find the really clear ones, and Auto Art is the best I've seen!

Give Big Lots a try. They usually have them for around $1.99
Wal-mart has them every once in a while too.

Thanks! The base is just under 5.5" wide and 12" long.

I have tried the ones at Wal-Mart but no fitty.

Still unable to find one that will fit the unique dimensions of the Maisto 1:18 base. The Maisto base is more narrow and shorter than the 1:18 display cases I have seen in Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, Toys-R-Us and Hobby Lobby. I'd like to keep the Maisto base because of the nameplate. I'll try emailing Maisto to see if they know of a supplier.
